Munanjahli and South Sea Islander woman, Professor Chelsea Watego speaks about her new book, Black Thoughts Matter: Essays on Black Love, Black Power, and Black Joy. In the following excerpt from this week’s episode of Women on the Line, Chelsea speaks about Aboriginal women's voices and perspectives that are often missing from public discourse; the censorship and control of white women editors; and the power, the joy, and the importance of embracing rage. This conversation first aired on 3CR's Women on the Line on Monday 22 September 2025.// Tasnim Sammak, a Palestinian activist, academic, and organiser with Free Palestine Coalition Naarm, spoke at the Free Palestine rally on 21 September about nearing two years of the beginning of the genocidal assault on Gaza in the face of an imperialist colonialist advance that is going full speed ahead, with negotiations reaching no solution. On Sunday the 21st of September, various Palestine liberation groups rallied together for the 101st protest against Israel and Australia's complicity in the genocide since the onslaught began in October 2023. The rally drew particular attention to last year's ruling by the International Court of Justice that Israel’s occupation of Palestine is illegal, and the United Nations demand for Israel to withdraw its military and settlers by 18 September this year. As the deadline came and went, the West Bank continues to be gripped by the expulsion of families, the terror of armed settlers, new waves of illegal settlement building, and repeated assaults on Al-Aqsa Mosque.// Toad is a permaculture designer, community organiser, co-founder of PermaQueer and former director of Permaculture Australia.
